“Crazy Stupid Love”

By Cheryl Cole

La la la la la la la love
Swore I would never be
That girl holding your hand
Look at you gazing
Acting like your biggest fan
I used to make fun
Of all the things that they said
Saying I will never be like that

But then you showed up
Like you have been there before
Was like you knew me
Had me with every word
You saw right through me
Melted me down to the core
I was done when you walked
Through the door

Chorus

Well I don’t know how you do it to me
You make my brain just stop
Sink my heart to my feet
It’s like a roller coaster
But I’m only going up
I’m in crazy stupid love

So call me baby
In front of all your friends
It used to shake me
But would you say it again
It’s a weird feeling
We’re laying here in the dark
And I don’t want to fight this spark

You got me flying
Don’t want to ever come down
I’m realising
I kind of need you around
Hard to believe it
I’m that girl holding your hand
And I’m still trying to understand

(Chorus)
